SUMMARY:GB6MW Special Event Station at Meopham Windmill (Mills On The Air)
DESCRIPTION:Meopham Windmill was last activated for Mills on the Air Weekend in 2019. Following repair work to the mill\, by kind permission of the Parish Council we will again activate the mill on Saturday 10th May 2025 using the callsign GB6MW. \nOperation will be from the club’s gala tent on the lawn in front of the mill\, with the club’s 30ft scaffold mast supporting the HF antenna\, while the 2m/70cm white stick will be installed on the gallery of the mill. It’s an elevated site and we always get out well from there. The mill has undergone extensive renovation and the cap now turns to follow the wind\, which is why we can no longer hang the HF antenna from the cap of the mill itself.\n\nHelp is needed from 8am on Saturday to put up the tent and antennas\, to be ready to start operations at around 9.30. Assistance is also needed in getting items from the club’s lockup in the preceding days. It would be great to have some of our newer licensed members do some operating\, helped by experienced club members of course.\n\nIf you can’t come along please get on the air and work us. It’s a fun weekend there are dozens of mill stations to be worked.\n\nMeopham Windmill is about five miles south of Gravesend on the A227 and there are buses from Gravesend. If driving please note there is no parking at the mill itself\, you will need to park in the roads surrounding Meopham Green opposite the mill.\n\nRefreshments can be had in the Cricketers Pub which is only a few yards down the road but we will also have tea-making facilities on site.\n\nOrganisation of Mills on the Air has been taken over by Nunsfield House ARG and the club are on the list at https://www.nharg.org.uk/content/registered-mota-stations. They offer an award for working ten or more mill stations\, and this ought to be achievable on 40m SSB. Some stations will be active on both days but we are limiting ourselves to Saturday only. Unfortunately the mill will not be open to visitors as  all the H&S signoffs have not yet been obtained but the intention is to open the mill to the public later in 2025.\n\nWe very much hope this weekend will again become a regular event in the CVRS calendar.

SUMMARY:Equipment sale from the shack of G0FDZ
DESCRIPTION:The club is organising a mammoth sale on Sunday 25th May to help find homes for as much as possible of the equipment from shack of Chris G0FDZ. The sale will be from 1pm to 5pm at the Montrose Park Club\, 158 Hurst Road\, Sidcup DA15 9AJ. This will be rather like a rally and several surrounding clubs will be invited\, the objective being to sell as much as possible. Please note that this is not a club surplus sale and we will ONLY be selling Chris’s gear\, nothing else. There is no admission fee. \nThe club bar will be open throughout the sale\, and the venue has been chosen because there is a great deal more parking available than at our regular meeting place. \nLast year Chris Whitmarsh\, G0FDZ was presented with an RSGB Lifetime Achievement Award by RSGB President John McCullagh GI4BWM and RSGB Board Chair Stewart Bryant G3YSX. Chris is the only amateur in the UK to have had a two-way QSO on every single amateur band for which we are licensed. \nChris has contributed enormously to the club over the decades.
